Keep clear of moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry, watches, long hair, and other loose or hanging items can become
entangled in moving parts.
Wear protective equipment when appropriate.
DO NOT attempt to remove material from any part of the machine while it is being operated or while components are
in motion.
Make sure that all guards and shields are in good condition and properly installed before you operate the machine.
Never operate the machine with shields removed. Always close access doors or panels before you operate the ma-

Dirty or slippery steps, ladders, walkways, and platforms can cause falls. Make sure these surfaces remain clean and
clear of debris.
A person or pet within the operating area of a machine can be struck or crushed by the machine or its equipment. DO
NOT allow anyone to enter the work area.
Raised equipment and/or loads can fall unexpectedly and crush persons underneath. Never allow anyone to enter
the area underneath raised equipment during operation.
Never operate the engine in enclosed spaces as harmful exhaust gases may build up.
Before you start the machine, be sure that all controls are in neutral or park lock position.
Start the engine only from the operator's seat. If you bypass the safety start switch, the engine can start with the
transmission in gear. Do not connect or short across terminals on the starter solenoid. Attach jumper cables as
described in the manual. Starting in gear may cause death or serious injury.
Always keep windows, mirrors, all lighting, and Slow-Moving Vehicle (SMV) emblem clean to provide the best possible
visibility while you operate the machine.

other locations.

1. Bring the engine to low idle speed.
2. Disengage all drive systems.
